I think you need to see past the rumours and stick to the facts from that thread.

Basically trash went to the US and bummed someone to death.
What engrams did that ultra-kill get him?

I have done the argonarch rune and have another charged one to use. Wuddie is right, Bungie have disabled it for the moment, I haven't been able to use it.

Got one tier 2 to get, Bracus, Mengoor & Cra'adug. Only have one tier 2 rune but have 4 tier 3 to use.

It's Thalnok as the tier 3 this week. Think that's the Crota one?

Yep, it's the easiest job. As is standing on the front left!

if you need the Tier 2 one then present the rune, start it and if it isn't B, M and C then just jump off the platform until the counter times down. It'll annoy the tits off any randoms there but you get the rune back after a failed Tier 2 and can then try it again once your cooldown has ended.

Aaaannnnddddd I did offer to hand over the baton on more than one occasion, as quite clearly everyone was shooting the ogres like a Parkinsons sufferer with a coke habit.

I suppose we may have had a few dodgy controllers though biggrinbiggrin

I've added you Will.

RE Ogres,was it genuine struggle or Glenda McTeabags acting the cretin??
Most common strategy I've seen is to have two people 'support' with them. You don't need anyone on the 4th platform (although the person who usually picks up platform 4 still needs to detonate his orb) which should leave two for Ogre support (one floater and platform 4). I found a few sniper shots at each (when there are two supporting) as they spawn was enough.

If there are any Malices then they need to be with the runner and the floater as they don't need to go galavanting off detonating orbs and can continue shooting Oryx without stopping (even though the detonations themselves do much more damage apparently).

Good to see some nice banter over the last few pages. I have been laying low so I don't get too depressed about not being able to play...

Can't work out if wuddie mysteriously dredging up that thread was a troll or he genuinely didn't know! smile

It must be weird to be infamous...

Anyway, there is a list of GT's back in the start if the thread so suggest adding people from there. Mine is the same as here.

It's generally a friendly bunch although one or two can be a bit too friendly wink

Also never leave your controller unattended near an edge...they have a tendency to get "rumbled" off whatever surface they're on smile

Are you guys going to be raiding or iron bannering tonight? Or will it depend on the gear?

I can see iron banner stuff still being 280 light which will be a pain for yet more infusion.

We had a few too many Ogre 50 yard sprints. I had to check everyone's weapons.

I took a screen shot of Glens guardian. It did have armour piercing chrysanthemums in all fairness: -



We found having four players covering a pad each, and a dedicated floater sat up on one of the Sisters platforms worked well. You have a decent view up there.

Depending on where Oryx started the player covering 4th pad would become the second floater. If anyone died the dedicated floater would fill in if we couldn't revive in time.

Slightly OT....

Solo hard mode crota...whilst taking no damage...and walking backwards!

Note the use of exotic flame sword for insta-kneel!

It's an awesome weapon!

Oops, forgot to say that unless there is some seriously must have loot from Iron Banner then I'm happy to give it a miss this month. I would rather spend the time practicing the raid in readiness for when hard mode drops.

The thread was the top one on our forums when I was looking earlier, I honestly had never seen it before and was curious!

Hopefully I haven't offended trash by bringing it to everyone's attention..



Although he doesn't seem to be replying to me anymore, and he told me to stop texting him!!! (Sorry couldn't resist)

Just to steer it back on topic, tanks post reminded me...any bets on when hard mode comes out?

Rumours about extras in hard mode:-

The golgoroth tower ticks up on gaze losses as well as deaths.

Choice of runner is random at Oryx

Any others?

I got booted out earlier when the servers switched off. Is it just a reset or will they be down longer? Luckily I'd just finished a strike and netted some sweet gear on the way out.

I wish there was a better update system that didn't wait until you'd fully booted a game before telling you there was an update. My phone manages to keep track of updates pretty well!

Well i'm not buying any of the pay for emotes

Had a "quick" blat on Crota Hard. Did the bridge the right way and took us about 20 mins to get to crota then it all fell apart. With no experanced Sword barer it took about 8 trys but we managed it. Still fun in the end

ALso did the firts few parts of the raid. Seems I only get the first parts done then people need to leave frown
